30 second peek into all the small decisions that make up an Umphrey’s lighting build.
Using slow movement to mirror the anticipation and emotional peak of Brendan’s high note “Blow Awayyy” and then color for the guitar solo ending - this is a typical approach for this specific section. But each show has its own unique character and differences night after night.

Bending light, fat beams and disco balls.
Ben & Louie break down the lighting rig from the Colorado NYE run, featuring @official.megalite M-Spheres.
With half mirror ball and half flat mirror, the M-Spheres allowed Ben & Louie to fill the room in a reimagined way.
What’d you think of these new lights?

#BTS Here’s 30 seconds of Wizard Burial Ground from NYE with the lighting cue list overlayed. Like Guitar Hero for lights! Go go go go.
When I got word that the band would be playing their epic, 10+ minute prog metal opus with @mikeportnoy I wanted to rise to the challenge and specifically program out the entire thing, the way I imagine a Dream Theater show is approached. What resulted was 250+ intentional cues, excluding live bumps and strobes. Look at those Robe Spikies fly!!
So fun to give this song the treatment it deserves. Full song is available on the bands YouTube

Thank you, Umphrey’s McGee, for a lifetime of inspiration. My last run as LD will be this weekend, August 12-15. A proper batch of big Midwest shows, capped off in Chicago. I am going to leave it all out on the field - No tricks kept secret or ideas left unrealized. M Sphere mirrors, MA3, everything I got! See you all there. ❤️

Too cool!! We played twice during the July tour. Once at setbreak and then at a late night stage at a festival. What a joy !!
Gracias to our bands for letting us use their gear and have some fun.

Playing one of my favorite songs (Someday, The Strokes) with two of my favorite singers (@rebeccahhrosen and @brendanbaylissmusic ) in front of the amazing Umphreys crowd poolside in Mexico! What a fun time !! Familia 🙏

Q1 2026 Highlights. Coast to coast, a wide spectrum of venues and finding a visual voice with this mirror rig.
Thank you to all the rockstar photogs who capture the moments.
Stoked for next week at Sweetwater 420 Fest where I’ll be using a rig full of the new Viper XIP for the first time!

A small chunk of improvisation with 3 M-Sphere’s, 6 Axioms, 24 Spikies and 1 awesome band at @mcdonald_theatre in Eugene Oregon. Fun!

An enormous thank you to all of the in-house LD’s, techs, stagehands and electricians who helped make this first leg of tour run smoothly! Y’all accommodated our touring package and got your hands dirty building and tearing it down.
Focusing all those extra positions for the mirror looks was not easy - So getting up and running in a timely fashion was crucial, and greatly appreciated 🙏
And of course a forever shoutout to the UMCrew - Louie, Bob, Robbie, Chris + Bobby.
(Many venues not pictured here. Some load outs don’t exactly have “take a mirror selfie” vibes/time/space. Much love to all those places too 😂 )

🤩 Well done peeps!!! We raised over $2,000 last night. Such a good time hanging in the live chat, talkin shit and nerding out. Pretty incredible for this lighting/UM community to come together like that. 💕🙏 The show footage is now available on my YouTube for anyone who missed the live premiere. It’s some good Umphrey’s. ✌️
